So gateways and routers tend to fall under the same conversation structure as "how good is your phone's camera?"

The question is, is the answer -- like phones -- increasingly "better than the average person ever needed, really."?

This is true. I sometimes forget that my perception tends to line with that of an enthusiast more so than your layman. So my grievances and concerns tend to be mostly irrelevant to everyone.
Pretty good perspective on this. I signed up for a 25 Mbps connection with Comcast (no alternatives in my area), and I'll be alone aside from when people stay over, including a friend who'll be staying with me til March. Really all I need to have functional are email, FFXI, and my Wii U's stuff (Smash Bros, Netflix if I steal it from my brother's girlfriend). The house isn't particularly large, I'm kind of a minimalist, so I think it'll work out.

For MTV it wasn't too bad, definitely watchable.

It just bugs me that they ALL look good lol, you need some uglies to balance it out

I've run a lot of things off 25-30mbps, unless you're torrenting/streaming several instances of hd video you'll be fine (Netflix has been working on restructuring their library to work better on lower bandwidth anyway).

We're on the same page Jet, I just find myself using the terms most ubiquitous, even if they are just marketing buzzwords.

Kinda like how everyone on the internet suddenly decided to start calling handleless segways "hoverboards".

I just noticed all you guys are on Bismarck. If they ever do end up merging servers, I hope Bismarck and Sylph team up, we'll be as unconquerable as Austria-Hungary!

Didn't they get invaded during the European Civil-war of 1812?

The undisputed masters of WWI! But in seriousness, there are times when I wish I could hang out with some of the people from here in game, but without the cost or restrictions of server changing. Sylph is too groovy for me to ever leave by choice.

If its any consolation, so is half of my linkshell. I deliberately pearl people like that cuz they tend to more genuinely enjoy playing and less dickish.

I like playing at my own pace; taking my time and smelling the roses. Kind of like a slow loris.

I haven't gotten to do skirmish I almost a year actually lol. But yeah we should go sometime. What drops are you after? We should drag bb too.

O_o

You bought like 10 popsets on 1/1/16!

Honestly I could probably handle it all on my own. I just have so much to do right now that I'm losing my mind. Just leveled SCH and need to get my gear up to snuff and I think, short of spending a ton of gil on abj stuff or stealing Merlinic stuff from LS members who need it more, Skirmish+1 is still pretty good for many slots. The mule just leveled BST so I can use him to cleave for JP for me so I don't have to play with others because I'm ornery.

Be careful what you wish for; Bismarck smells like boiled cabbage. On Seraph it was only Bastok that smelled like that.

I still miss Seraph.

The reason I enjoyed 75 cap (and then to about 85) wasn't because of the content, it was the people I did it with. I always had just as much fun doing random stuff in XI but only because of the ones I played with, not the level or whatever.


Also how the servers were filled with people back then (Bahamut and Bismarck)

I'm so mad at myself for missing my chance to see Muse live again.
They even played one of their best live songs in their setlist too.

Ah well, time to stalk their tour dates and see what I can pull off in the future.

I really enjoyed the books but I'm happy I don't remember them at all because of how easy it is to get upset that they omitted half the books in the TV adaptation like every other show.

You can change your name once per day btw, so you can get your A back if you want.
Nice leader. ( '-')b

That's new. I don't remember Spirit Link giving you your wyvern's TP. That's pretty rad. Makes me glad they don't expend TP when using their breath attacks anymore.
